Under the umbrella of the SuSanA Indian Chapter, the India Sanitation Coalition in partnership with Population Services International (PSI) and SuSanA, held a four-week thematic discussion on India's national rural sanitation programme, the Swachh Bharat Mission‐Gramin (SBM‐G).

Starting point for the discussion were findings from a PSI policy landscape study that reviewed existing literature and conducted key informant interviews to understand SBM‐G, key functions and players (private, public, formal, informal). Some of the chokepoints for the rural sanitation progress include
• The incremental budgetary increases in SBM‐G allocations
• Presence of a fragmented supply chain
• Missing incentives for market behaviours

This synthesis is a summary of all responses to these initial findings that were discussed in the forum.

How to work with the Filter panel

Filter operations

If you tick two options within one filter parameter, then this is treated as an "or" search, meaning either of them could be true. But if you tick two filters for two different parameters then this is treated as an "and" search, i.e. both parameters must be true to return a result. If anything is unclear about how the filter and search combinations work, just contact us: info@susana.org

Function coming soon

At the moment, not all functions and hyperlinks are available. We will implemented this functionality within the next few weeks.

We ask for your understanding.
